13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity
Who remembers these cartoons?
All over the world, from the beginning of time, humans have tried to define love.
I am bad about saying things like ” I love pizza!”, an article of clothing, how someone looks or even a post on social media.
It seems by doing that, I am trivializing love.
Actually, TRUE LOVE came to earth, lived a sinless life, suffered, died, rose again and awaits His time to come again to collect us unto Himself. His Name is Jesus- Name above al names! Worthy of praise and honor and glory!
The love of Christ is unconditional, unchanging and undeserved.
I encourage you to take time to think about and thank our Marvelous Lord andSavior, Who is love personified.
1 John 4:19We love Him, because He first loved us.
prayer
Father God

Forever and ever
In the Name of Jesus
